Model A commercial vehicles picture thread!!

[Steve Plucker]

I have a question about the model A body styles, in the STEVE PLUCKER study "LETTERS, NUMBERS AND CODES" figure the (canopy top) 65-A light commercial body, this body is the same like a Huckster?

NO, it was a seperate "top" that Ford offered for not only for the "light commercial" pickup bed bodies, but also there were two longer versions for the express bodies of the 131-1/2" wheel base and the 157" wheel base AA Trucks.

If you have a copy of the Ford Service Bulletins, you can see one and its construction on page 555, April 1931.

I think they were offered in 1931 but were to fit all years????

Are any of those for sale?
I bought, what seller told me was an original '31 PU-cab imported from Texas, but it turned out to be yet another cut-down sedan. So I'm looking for one, who can be shipped to Denmark (where I live). I've got the Tudor-doors and cowl, only need roof and back-piece, plus wood (but that can be bought from new).

Can anyone help?

Pictures are about ten years old, can't even remember where the place is. Sorry!

Hey Dannerr, when you do find one, have someone form a model A club nearest the cab check it out for you before you buy it or ship it! I'm sure people would help you out, especially considering your great distance. I would if you were looking near me.

It is too bad about the "paddy wagon". I was sure hoping it was a real one.

29RPU: That's a good idea! You think, people would help me with that? Must plan to oin the MAFCA next month! But my biggest problem is, that I don't know where to look - besides ebay. Do you know of other places to look for these cars and parts? Have you knowledge of any local, whom might have a PU-cab for sale (at decent price and condition, of course!)?
Yeah, I was sorry too - but I've decided to keep up the build, so until I find "the real deal", I'll keep on building with the sedan-parts, I've got now, as I simultaniously are looking for a genuine '30/'31 PU-cab.
